Hidden in plain sight: songs you didn’t know were about Christianity

Romans 8:28 NIV “28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” Have you ever been be-bopping down the road listening to 107.3 (not a Christian radio station) when a song comes on that grabs your feel goods? You’reContinue reading “Hidden in plain sight: songs you didn’t know were about Christianity”

Christianity and money

EXODUS 4:10, KJV “And Moses said unto the Lord, O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue.” Much like Moses, I have never been an elegant speaker. I can ever remember the right words toContinue reading “Christianity and money”

The Silver Lining

1 Thessalonians 5:18 New Living Translation 18 Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. Many years ago I had a panic attack during a snow storm. At the time, I worked in Mt. Vernon and was trying to get home to London. About 23 miles.  TheContinue reading “The Silver Lining”

Sinner to Saint

Sin, brings temporary joy. Forever with us, it toys. ~ Sin, you giggle, tote, do really bad things.  Forever with us, in our souls it sings.  ~ “Come to me.” The siren duth sing.  “Come to me. Your soul to me, bring.” ~ Manifest the flesh.  Never! Never receive any rest.  ~ Born into sin.Continue reading “Sinner to Saint”

Sunshine Valley

Last year my billboard was a Bible verse. “Jesus wept.” John 11:35. I think it is still relevant. I’ve worked it into the next installment of my story. Thanks for reading. 💕 The chase      Evie’s heart was pounding out of her chest. Sweaty hands gripped the steering wheel. A big black suv gotContinue reading “Sunshine Valley”

Sunshine Valley 

Platonic relationships  Evie sighed, “I have been told all my life that men and women can’t just be friends.  As our society continues to change, it’s okay if your ‘friend’ of the opposite sex has a different sexual orientation from you. People still frown and judge.  I am aware that there is a whole schoolContinue reading “Sunshine Valley “

Monday School

Preventing the flood: The Story of Noah Bible Stories for Grown Ups A child’s view: I would bet there aren’t many children (especially in the Bible Belt) that haven’t heard the story of Noah. A lovely little story about a man God told to build a boat. He did. Got made fun of in theContinue reading “Monday School”

God, Chico and Me

I think it’s safe to post this poem on my blog since it’s been over a year and I haven’t heard back from the contest I submitted it to. Then, I read that the parent company of Redbox is filing for bankruptcy. Which just happens to be the same company that publishes the Chicken SoupContinue reading “God, Chico and Me”

Why be thankful?

Have you ever wondered, what do I have to be thankful about? You feel bad. You’re sad. You’re tired. Have you ever read someone else’s thankful and said, ‘I can be thankful for that’? But they said it, should I really repeat that? You couldn’t have an original thought if you tried. Or maybe you’veContinue reading “Why be thankful?”
